Summary/Abstract: “Georomanticism” is a collection of studies on the connections between Romantic literature and broadly understood space. The new approach to the issues that have been raised many times unfolds in recognising the cultural perspective as overriding, since this perspective opens the field of research in identity problems (connected e.g. with political and civilizational changes), in confrontation of various spatial orders (consideration on common/arguable/separate places) or spatial imagery, as well as in the “avant-garde” role of Romanticism for such fields of new humanities as politics of place, ecocriticism, and open or comparative regionalism. A separate value of the collection is its polyphony displaying in a variety of approaches and diversity of applied methods and discourses to which the volume refers.
